Ugetsu Monogatari, or Tales of Moonlight and Rain numbers among
the best-loved Japanese classics. These nine illustrated tales of
the supernatural from eighteenth-century Osaka combine popular
appeal with a high literary standard. The author expressed his
complex views on human life and society in simple yet poetic
language. Akinari questioned the prevailing moral values and
standards of his age whilst entertaining his readers with mystery
and other-worldly occurrences. This is a reissue of Leon Zolbroda
(TM)s definitive English translation of the work, first published
in 1974.
